I visited the Smithsonian Air & Space museum about 10 years ago, and I =
recall they had on display the front end of a B-26, cut off just forward =
of the wings, and open and viewable from behind. There on the port side =
against the forward bulkhead, facing aft, I recall seeing what appeared =
to be the radioman's position, with the major components of a command =
set - at least the dual-Tx and dual-Rx racks with bare aluminum units in =
them. I don't remember if the BC-456 and the control boxes were present. =
Again, this was 10 years ago. Everything could've changed since then. =
Just FYI!

I do not know. There was supposed to be an exhibit but I don't think it
has happened yet.
